Transcript

"There are certain spots I don't like and at night I stay away
from a particular stairwell down in the basement...Even as we
talk, I can feel the hair on my arms rising."
claimed an eerie hammering noise could be
heard on the basement
pipes.
Possibly, the restless soul of the dead
workman was trying to
finish the job he unwillingly left behind so many
years ago.
A certain night
custodian, who asked
that his name not be
used, claimed to have encountered the ghost tow
years ago on Halloween
night. "I was cleaning,
and I kept hearing this
clicking noise. When I
turned around, there he
was. His face was mean
and blue. He kind of
floated and was checking his pocket watch. I
ran and didn't look back,"
the scared source stated.
(Cullen was known for
being very time-wise and
always checking his gold
watch.)
The theory of the
specter belonging to
Cullen, who died in 1883,
was backed by some historical facts.
As the self-titled
Father of Education in
Texas, it was Cullen's
dream to establish a university in the heart of the
Houston business district. However, his
grandson's (Hugh Roy
Cullen) donation had
primarily been spent developing UH central, not
UH downtown.
Cullen, turning in
his grave over his misspent fortune, had returned to seek his revenge.
The spirit (or spirits) seemed most active
in the basement. "When
you're all alone in the
building, you just know
something is there with
you." Rhoades said.
